When using AS, I'll jot down what I use as I go on a legal pad (which is always nearby) and save new presets as "soundname-process order" e.g. Its a relatively easy way to not only backtrack, but also keep track of sounds I built vs sounds I pulled from the library.
When using TDM /RTAS I'll typically build on multiple tracks, re-record to the appropriate # of channels, then Hide and Make Inactive the build tracks. That is unless I know that I'll need to recreate the process multiple times for additional FX.
Oftentimes I haven't a clue about how I got to a final sound. As a result, they show up in gmail filed under a "Notes" label so they're accessible pretty much anywhere. Haven't graduated to Evernote yet because in iOS 4 I have all new notes default to my account. It's not as personal and engaging (or as says, reliable) as writing down notes by hand, but it's one less thing I have to carry around with me. For inspiration that strikes me while away from the desk I used to keep a moleskine in my bag, but once I got my iPod touch I just started using the Notes app.
